Google is a wonderful thing...

So, the interesting thing is that it looks like Sun RPC in general is not
going to do too well if the number of raised, at least if the svc_fdset
global descriptor set is used, which we do.

Now, of course, on Sun, we're using our own build of SunRPC, so we could
just modify the code to use FD_SETSIZE instead of asking the kernel, and it
will work fine. That's not a general fix though, since I'd imagine Linux
would also fail if the limit was raised, and recompiling RPC there isn't
real attractive for users.
